Remarks

The LogFolder property is a string of up to 260 characters.

Specify an operating system file using the LogFile property. Specify an operating system directory using the LogFolder property. Use drive-and-directory-based or UNC file naming. For example, the strings C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\Data and \\Seattle1\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\Data are each valid for LogFolder.
